Nova Southeastern (NSU) 7-year BS/DO (2018)

If you applied to Nova Southeastern (NSU) 7-year BS/DO this year please share your experience here.

Has anyone got interview invitation for the BS/DO program?

Yes. I have. Do you have any information on how many people are invited for an interview and how many get accepted?

Hey! I already interviewed. From what I’ve heard, many people are invited for an interview but some are not. There isn’t a limited amount of spots for the program- they make space for anyone they see as a perfect fit. Typically, the people who interview get in. But of course, that’s not always the case.

If you interviewed and did solid, you definitely have a big chance of getting in.

How was the interview? My DD has her interview next week?

It was great! I interviewed with 4 other students and I had one interviewer and two current medical students in the room as well. The questions weren’t difficult and the atmosphere was comfortable. The interviewer asked about five questions in total. At the end, we all received an envelope and we had to pick a random question from it. We had like 15 seconds to think about our answer and then say it out loud. That was the trickiest portion of the interview. Your DD shouldn’t feel nervous about it but she definitely should prepare a lot! I overprepared but it helped me so much. I’m sure your DD will ace it!

Were you interviewed for any scholarships? If yes how was it?

I interviewed for the Presidential scholarship and the interview itself was pretty comfortable. My interviewer was very friendly and the whole interview was more conversational. The interviewer is really just trying to get an idea of what kind of student your DD is. It’s about 30 minutes. The scholarship is very competitive though. 300 people interview for it and only 50-60 people get it.
I also interviewed for one razor’s scholarship and that was definitely the most relaxed interview out of all three of my interviews.

When do you think you will hear back? also was the interview one on one?

Presidential is always one on one. Razor’s depends on the type your DD is interviewing for. Mine was with one faculty member and one current student. I’ll be hearing back in a week! Everyone hears back two weeks after their interview.

Thank you for the info. Let us know when you hear back from Nova.

@nutellagirl13 did you hear back from NSU?

No, I’m still waiting for a response. The latest I can hear back is Wednesday.

Good luck, and keep us updated.

Hi, I just interviewed this past weekend but for the dental program. When did you interview and how long did it take to hear back? What were your results?

@nutellagirl13

You’ll know in exactly 2 weeks from your interview! I, unfortunately, did not get into the DO program but I wish you the best of luck!

@nutellagirl13 that’s so sad to hear. When did know about the rejection? Did you get into any other duel programs?

I received the letter about my rejection about a week ago :frowning: I have two interviews scheduled - one for MSU’S OMSP as well as USA’s COMEAP!
